Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Please help me give my students very happy holidays. Giving students gifts to build positive relationships with students. It motivates them and incentives them. The students deserve a reward, and this helps them to build a positive school association. They feel so special to get a gift from their teacher. I like to help my students by providing them with school supplies to take home.

Students feel great pride when they get to make handmade gifts and keepsake crafts for their parents, it is a great way to build relationships and memories.

When students get to make something for parents makes holiday gift-giving fun! Invite children to help make any of these gorgeous parent gifts.

Personalized gifts kids can make for parents and grandparents are always a favorite with family and friends. Help the kids make handmade crafts and gifts for the holidays.
